Excerpt from Researches Upon "Spurious Vaccination," or the Abnormal Phenomena Accompanying and Following Vaccination in the Confederate Army, During the Recent American Civil War, 1861-1865 He showed that in some cases the system was not rendered totally unsusceptible to the variolous contagion, either by the cow pox vaccination, or the small-pox; but that vaccination, when properly performed with genuine matter, afforded as complete protection as the small-pox itself. He proved that by inocula ting a person who had gone through the cow - pox, with variolous matter, it was possible to excite a local vesication, the virus from which was capable of producing a mild but efficacious small - pox. He farther maintained that modifications and varieties might arise in the vaccine pustule, and that these varieties were such as to produce every gradation in the state of the pustule, from that slight deviation from perfection, which is quite immaterial, up to that point which affords no security at all. He held that uid taken from a spurious vaccine pustule can propagate and perpetuate its like, and even if it be taken from a genuine pus tule in its far - advanced stages, it is capable of producing varieties which will be permanent if we continue to employ it.
